The National Stationery Show is spread out over something like 30 different aisles, each with 30-60 booths along the aisle depending on the size of the booths and length of that particular row. Sometimes I can breeze through a row and visit only 1 or 2 booths, and sometimes it takes me HOURS to get through a packed row. This year it seemed like there were a lot of really packed rows, and today I thought I’d take you on a little walking tour of one row in particular: the 2000 row! This row was full of some amazing letterpress printers, all friends and many former exhibitors with the Ladies of Letterpress. The booths contain everything from sweet illustrated cards to colorful modern cards to some of the funniest cards at the entire show. See how easy it would be to get stuck here??
HA!!
More mythical creatures! Rachael has a unicorn and Sasquatch card in her heart silhouette series!
LOVE this new collaboration with calligrapher Betsy Dunlap!
I love Kathryn’s growing menagerie of animal die-cut cards: Sasquatch is the newest addition!
I’ll be back with more from the 2013 National Stationery Show soon!
